To be fair, my Nexus mostly does streaming video and some light emailing and surfing, these days.
To be fair, my Nexus mostly does streaming video and some light emailing and surfing, these days. The display is small but high quality. Netflix keeps prompting me to sign in again, but that seems to be Netflix. There were some hiccups with the upgrades to 5.x, but I didn't get caught by those. News reports taught me to be a bit conservative, in exercising a bit of delay before applying OS updates if there was no looming security fiasco. Compared to my parents' contemporary and more expensive Samsung tablet, with Verizon LTE (and thus, Verizon as well as Samsung in the middle), that is still stuck on 4.4.1 or 4.4.2, the last I looked... And with some crappy third party calendar app as the default that had my mother confused for a while... Well, via that comparison and others, I'm agreeing with the other commenter that if you can go straight Nexus, that seems to be a better way to go WRT the Android platform. I'm hitting "tired"; otherwise, I might be able to think of some of the software concerns I've had that are not OS / updates specific. Oh, I remember the time I added some photos to Keep, to learn that there was no way to keep them from syncing while on the cell connection as opposed to WiFi. And, I could lament the whole "fish around on the web for random articles, for your documentation" approach, these days. Anyway, I'm mostly responding to show a bit of support, despite our differing satisfaction levels / experiences. When something doesn't work, too often the environment/app leaves us feeling SOL. They got my money, so f--- me! ;-)
